The tabs aren't reordering, the rows are. That's normal. All multi-row tabs work like this. Whichever row contains the tab you just clicked must come to the front in order for you to see it, and so that the tab is connected to (immediately above) its content. If the row containing the active...

Oh, and I just realized an even worse problem that makes it impossible to recover: Again, in the same situation when you've got unexecuted/unsaved changes in the window, if you hit Ctrl-Up and then GOD FORBID you change the text in the window in any way, even if you type a single character...

I recently figured out that there's a bug in the implementation that makes recovering from an unintentional Ctrl-Up much more confusing than it should be. When you're working in a window with an execution history of a couple of statements, and are now making additional new changes in the window...

I don't know if this is what you're experiencing, but often connecting via RDP (at least in my case) involves resizing the desktop to a new monitor configuration, which involves Windows messaging all of the running applications to resize themselves. The user doesn't gain control back until that...

I should have mentioned that I skipped right to "Allow version control over DB objects" for my initial testing, but it sounds like that's off the table. I'll turn that option off for my next round of testing, thanks.

I'm trying the VCS plugin for the first time, after using PL/SQL Developer for many years, but I feel like I must be missing something... We have several schemas/owners which contain objects for our application, all of which need to get stored in the same source repository (in our case TFS)...

FYI, I don't see SET SQLBLANKLINES documented in the v12 manual. I hope it just never made it into the docs, as opposed to having been DE-supported at some point in the last 8 years...? (I haven't tested it yet.) I've read through the Command Window chapter of the manual quite a bit lately...

(Found this old thread after considerable searching. I couldn't figure out how to make the forum search for the string "@@" so apologies if I missed a more recent discussion on this.) The Oracle SQL*Plus documentation on "@" vs "@@" seems pretty clear that they are different and that "@@"...

Wow, you said creating a recursive folder structure is a "really, really bad idea" and then you went ahead and documented it for me! :eek: When you tried it yourself, did you leave it that way? How long? Any application, utility or system service which tries to scan the folder hierarchy (for...

Wow, that's one of the uglier end-user workarounds I've seen, and it's crazy that it's necessary, but I admire your effort and appreciate you documenting it. However, I'm looking at my own system and, in addition to recovery files in a "Monitors-1280-1280" subfolder (I have only one), I also...

I'm working with a large select statement with an UNPIVOT right now and I'm banging into this, too. The beautifier ends up indenting an important section of the statement way out to the right where I can't see it without scrolling. ProTip: I had recently checked a bunch of the "Automatically...

I use the 64 bit version (and just upgraded to 11) so I'm not sure how serious the copy/paste problem is exactly, but ... this kind of sounds like you're going to make people pay to get the fix?

Can you explain what this functionality is? I searched the User's Guide for "desktop" and didn't see anything that seemed to match what you're describing. Is that a command-line parameter?

I'd like to bump this topic, as I am also very frustrated by this new recovery file implementation. I'm puzzled by the design choice and can't see the intended benefit of storing recovery files specific to monitor resolution. The downside (failure to restore) feels like a pretty serious bug. I...
